As opposed to 23 for the Lakers?

BR, get your ass in here and testify!

Yeah, and Lakers players get to lower their heads and shoulder block Hornets players and be rewarded free throws, but when a Hornets player does the same thing, it's an offensive foul. Reminds me of when Kobe push Chris Paul down and Paul was called for his sixth foul.

Hornets did shoot jumpers, but their bigs didn't get many calls.

Honestly, they were doing better without West. They should have stuck with Gray and Andersen. West stagnated the offense once he came back in. The team had a -18 with him in the game.

Didn't the NBA take over the Hornets? Typical results then tbh.

Looking at the shot chart, the Lakers seemed to shoot just as many jumpers as the Hornets did. But I didn't watch the game, so it's just anecdotal.

Look at the turnovers and steals.

It is a travesty given that the Hornets were at home...

CP3 wasn't on his flop game tonight. It was rather shocking.

He was outflopped by the master, tbh

Hornets won nearly every category, but -19 FT pts, lose by 6.

that's a pretty huge FT discrepancy on the road. Looks like the refs pissed in Hornets' home cookin.

Lakers as expected had monster games by Gasol and Kobe with both Okafor and Ariza out. Honestly, this game is pretty disturbing for Lakers considering they barely won with both of their stars having big games and a huge disparity at the FT line.

No Manu, no care.

Fisher is on the podium, though.

im not sure how the stats work. do they count plays in which a player is fouled as a FG attemtp? otherwise that skews the numbers.
anyways the hornets should have won if they bothered playing defense. i think in the third they must have made 13 shots in a row. david anderson was beasting. i almost outplayed the entire lakers bench.

sons just got back from the game and proud of the team. they were short handed playing without both Okafor and Ariza, but still played well. regardless though it wouldn't have mattered even if the Hornets had shot the ball 95%, there simply is no answer to the officiating whenever they are hell bent on helping one team.

27 Laker free throws compared to 4 Hornets free throws. nothing else needs to be said.

Wouldn't the refs help the Hornets? I'm confused...

Fisher is on the podium, though.

Fish is atop the flopper podium, no doubt about it.

Fisher almost pulled a Pierce during one point, but like the true flop champ he is he was able to come in after the timeout.
